Re: Doctor Who Machined Classic Sonic Pertwee/Baker/Davison Kit
If you are referring to the 8th doctor's sonic used in the 1996 film with a brass band. Its unlikely that I will be making that one for several reasons.
First of all, I already have the Russrep version from the recent run. As most people probably would have gotten one when possible, I don't think that there would be enough interest to make that happen. Also, that sonic has a completely different construction, and it functions differently than the classic sonics. I also don't have very much research material that I could build a model off of, as I am not willing to re-cast Russ' version and I dong't own the pewter version that the screen-used prop was based off of.
Theoretically, there should be room for sound. The area where all the electronics would be in would be slightly cramped, but application of the electronics from a Character Options toy should be possible. Once the prototype comes in, I'll see whether or not applying electronics will limit the extension length.
I've been interested in picking up metal versions of the classic sonic's I've just not yet figured out the best way to go. Also debated whether to wait a bit longer to pick up the sound versions which are a little pricier or the non for display purposes...hmmm
I saw the War Doctor's mentioned, out of curiosity would the 8th Doctor's in the similar classic style be possible?

Nice! Interested. Will there be room for sound? Unless I looked over that part.
